Here is a history of user visible changes to Mailman.
+2.1.5 (XX-XXX-2004)
+
+ - The qrunner system has changed to use only one file per message.
+ However the configuration variable METADATA_FORMAT has been removed, and
+ support for SAVE_MSGS_AS_PICKLES has been changed. The latter no longer
+ writes messages as plain text. Instead, they are stored as pickles of
+ plain strings, using the text pickle format. This still makes them
+ non-binary files readable and editable by humans.
+
+ bin/dumpdb also works differently. It will print out the entire pickle
+ file (with more verbosity) and if used with 'python -i', it binds msg to
+ a list of all objects found in the pickle file.
+
+ - The bounce processor has been redesigned so that now when an address's
+ bounce score reaches the threshold, that address will be sent a probe
+ message. Only if the probe bounces will the address be disabled. The
+ score is reset to zero when the probe is sent.
+
+ - The pending database has been changed from a global pickle file, to a
+ unique pickle file per mailing list.
+
2.1.4 (31-Dec-2003)
- Close some cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the admin pages
